Six New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary candidates in the 2024 elections have filed an application for a judicial review in the form of a Mandamus, urging the High Court to compel the Electoral Commission (EC) to collate and declare parliamentary results in their respective constituencies.
Represented by lawyer Gary Nimako Marfo, the candidates-Charles Forson (Tema Central), Frank Annoh-Dompreh (Nsawam-Adoagyiri), Patrick Yaw Boamah (Okaikwei Central), Martin Kweku Adjei-Mensah Korsah (Techiman South), Nana Akua Owusu Afriye (Ablekuma North), and Eric Nana Agyemang Prempeh (Ahafo Ano North)-are requesting two critical orders.
The first seeks to mandate the EC to collate and declare the results of the elections held on December 7, 2024, in their constituencies.
The second calls for the Inspector General of Police to ensure adequate security at collation centers to enable the EC to carry out its constitutional duties without further disruptions.
